"So far, this season has been an eye opener on just how simple little mistakes can beat you in the long run. As a team, early in theseason we allowed for some little mistakes which you just cannot afford to make in our conference.

"On the other hand, it has been a greatlearning experience and I have been very proud of how we have responded to the adversity and grown better every week."

"As far as Vanderbilt is concerned, I could not be more proud and excited about theprogram. I have seen every game that has been on broadcast TV or at least caught the highlights on ESPN. After they beat South Carolina, I couldn't even sleep I was so excited, and for them to now be nationally ranked, I think that speaks for the coaching staff they have there and the quality of kids they have in the program. I think that they more than deserve everything in which they have achieved."

"I will be attending the Auburn game next weekend and will probably be attending almost every home game after that if my schedule permits."

Ensworth is a very good team and their backs are more than explosiveBut I hope that we can tame them and see how it goes.
